Terms of Service for Mobile Apps

Generate Terms of Service for your iOS or Android app. Covers in-app purchases, user-generated content, device permissions, app store compliance, and account management.

Mobile app Terms of Service must navigate a three-way legal relationship between your company, the user, and the app store (Apple or Google). Both Apple and Google have specific requirements about what your ToS must include, and any conflict between your ToS and their developer agreements can result in app removal. Your terms need to work within these constraints.

Mobile apps also raise legal issues that web applications don't face. In-app purchases through Apple's or Google's billing systems have their own refund rules that override your policy. Device permissions create data access obligations. Push notifications require consent in most jurisdictions. And if your app allows user-generated content, you need robust content moderation terms.

Our mobile app ToS generator accounts for app store requirements, in-app purchase mechanics, device permission governance, and the unique user experience of mobile applications. It produces terms that protect your business while complying with Apple's and Google's developer agreements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Apple and Google require specific terms in my app's ToS?
Yes. Apple requires that your EULA (End User License Agreement) doesn't conflict with their standard EULA, and Google requires specific disclosures about in-app purchases and subscriptions. Both require that your ToS acknowledge the app store as a third-party beneficiary. Our generator includes these required provisions.
Who handles refunds for in-app purchases?
For purchases made through Apple's App Store or Google Play billing, the app store handles refunds according to their own policies, and your ToS should acknowledge this. For purchases made directly through your app (using Stripe or another processor), your own refund policy applies. Our generator covers both scenarios.
How should I handle user-generated content in my app?
Your ToS should specify that users retain ownership of their content but grant you a license to display, store, and process it for service delivery. Include rules about prohibited content, your right to remove content, and your DMCA or takedown process. Also clarify that you're not responsible for user-generated content to limit your liability.
